they wouldnt bend they wouldnt bow they wouldnt burn
The Fourth Man In The Fire
------Johnny Cash
Refrain:
They wouldn't bend
They held on to the will of God so we are told
They wouldn't bow
They would not bow their knees to Idols made of gold
They wouldn't burn
They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire
They wouldn't bend
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn.
Now the prophet Daniel tells about
Three men who walked with God
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
Before the wicked king they stood
And the king commanded them bound and thrown
Into the fiery furnace that day
But the fire was so hot that the men were slain
That forced them on their way.
Refrain:
Now when the three were cast in and the king rose up
To witness this awful fate
He began to tremble at what he saw
In astonished tones he spake
Did we not cast three men bound
Into the midst of the fire
Well, Lo, I see four men unhurt
Unbound and walkin' down there;
There's Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego
And the fiery coals they trod
But the form of the Fourth Man that I see
Is like the Son of God
------Johnny Cash
Refrain:
They wouldn't bend
They held on to the will of God so we are told
They wouldn't bow
They would not bow their knees to Idols made of gold
They wouldn't burn
They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire
They wouldn't bend
They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn.

Thank you. I inherited my dad's collection of sheet music and was certain he had a copy but I've not been able to find it. I'm so very thankful that I found this site by accident quite recently. And now I've found the words to two songs I've been looking for without success until now. God bless all of you.

I'm sure the song you are looking for is called The Fourth Man by Arthur Smith
Refrain: They wouldn't bend They held on to the will of God so we are told They wouldn't bow They would not bow their knees to Idols made of gold They wouldn't burn They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire They wouldn't bend They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn.

You are exactly right!! Arthur Smith wrote this song, Johnny Cash sang it among many others.
